Arriviste (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

parvenu

upstart

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">arriviste</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for upstart that I've seen before include "Brash newcomer" , "Nouveau-riche" , "mushroom" , "Recent promotees, say, behaving with arrogance" , "Arrogant and presumptuous person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Times and The Guardian.
